The purpose of this study was to provide the descriptive sensory profiles for cooked rice by various rice cookers, losing descriptive analysis. The rice samples cooked in an electric pressure cooker, and in pressure cooker B, were separated by roasted flavor, sweetness, burnt flavor, cooked rice flavor, moistness, cohesiveness, and chewiness using PCA. The rice cooked in pressure cooker A was harder and rougher, and showed grain wholesomeness, but it still had a cooked and burnt flavor. The rice cooked in a stone cooker and an electric rice cooker was less hard, and showed less grain wholesomeness, but it had a burnt, cooked rice, and less raw rice type of flavor. Finally, the RTE (ready-to-eat) rice showed more grain wholesomeness, and had more raw rice and sour flavor.

Changes in retrogradation degree of nonwaxy milled rice cooked at different pressure and stored in electric rice cooker at $74^{\circ}C$ were investigated. The moisture contents of nonwaxy milled rice cooked at $1.0{\sim}1.9\;atm\;and\;1.2{\sim}1.5$ water/rice ratio were $59.9{\sim}64.3%$. When nonwaxy milled rice was cooked at high pressure, X-ray diffraction patterns of cooked rice exhibited the V-type having nearly no crystallinity. Retrogradation peak of cooked rice from DSC thermogram was observed in the temperature range of $41.9{\sim}62.4^{\circ}C$ and was not appeared in cooked rice above 1.5 atm. During storage at cooker for 24 hr, retrogradation enthalpy of cooked rice was increased and retrogradation peak was not appeared above 1.7 atm. In cooking and storage of cooked rice, retrogradation degree measured by ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method in high pressure gelatinized samples was lower than that in low pressure gelatinized ones.

The assembled structures of pressure rice cooker are consisted of oven, top heater plate and locking ring. Since pressure is applied to the assembled structures, it should be necessary to check the safety. In this paper, structural analyses are performed from design and fracture point of view. For the design point of view, linear analysis is performed to assembled structure and for the fracture point of view, nonlinear analysis is performed to locking ring. From these results safety evaluation technique for the assembled structures of pressure rice cooker is proposed.

The sensory properties and the change of lipid content of cooked rice were investigated to evaluate the effects of cooker (electric and pressure cooker) and variety ($Japonica and Indica\timesJaponica variety$). Overall preference of cooked rices were higher in the pressure cooker than the electric cooker. In the case of electric cooker, Japonica variety was prefered than $I\timesJ$ variety. Free lipid contents were reduced and bound lipid contents were increased after cooking. The bound lipid contents had a correlation with shiness of cooked rice(r=-0.69).

The Physicochemical, sensory and cooking properties of functionally fortified rice with dietary fiber and chitosan were compared with regular rice when the rices were cooked with pressure and electric cookers. Moisture content of functional rice before cooking was 11.11%, which was lower than 13.72% in regular rice. Accordingly, moisture contents of functional rice samples cooked both with pressure and electric cookers were lower than those of regular rice. L value showing the degree of lightness of cooked rice was significantly higher in rice samples cooked with pressure cookers. The ${\alpha}$ value, the degree of redness and the b value, the degree of yellowness, were the highest in the functional rice cooked with an electric rice cookers. Textural measurement of hardness using a rheometer showed the highest value in functional rice cooked with a pressure cooker. The degree of gelatinization measured using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) before cooking showed higher onset gelatinization temperature ($T_0$) and peak gelatinization temperature ($T_p$) in functional rice compared with those in regular rice. The gelatinization enthalpy (${\Delta}H$) of functional rice was lower than that of regular rice, showing that functional foe had lower gelatinization energy compared with regular rice. When the samples were stored in a refrigerator for one week, the DSC showed faster retrogradation degrees in samples cooked with electric rice cooker, having significantly higher enthalpies of regular and functional rice cooked with electric cooked compared to those cooked with pressure cookers. The functional rice samples cooked with pressure cooker had higher consumer acceptance test values compared to those cooked with electric cookers.

The Properties of cooked rice prepared by microwave oven was compared with those by pressure cooker There was no significant difference in sensory evaluation between microwave-cooked and pressure-cooked rices, however, the rice cooked by electric cooker was less preferred to others. The hardness of pressure-cooked rice was greater than others. As the storage time for cooked rice increased, the extent of gelatinization decreased, however, there were no significant differences among three samples.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality of cooked rice prepared by-an electric pressure cooker (EPC) and an electric cooker (EC) during storage at different temperatures. Four rice cultivars were used (Ilpoom, Saechucheong, Sindongjin, and Sura). The cooked rice samples were stored at room and warm temperatures for 48 hr, and at refrigerator temperatures for 10 days. Immediately after cooking, the moisture content of the EPC rice was lower than that of the EC rice; yet pH was higher for the EPC rice. The L-value of the EPC rice was reduced due to an increasing b-value. The overall acceptability of the EPC rice was high; in particular, it scored high for a roasted nutty flavor and texture. During storage, moisture content and pH decreased regardless of the cooking method. L-, a- and b-values were similar at room and refrigerator temperatures over the entire period, whereas the a-value (greenness) of the EC rice stored at warm temperature slightly decreased and the b-value (yellowness) increased after 24 hr, resulting in a decreasing L- value. Also, sensory characteristics were not significantly different for the samples stored at room temperature for 48 hr; however, at warm and refrigerator temperatures, the sensory characteristics were significantly different after 24 hr and 3 days, respectively. In conclusion, the quality of the cooked rice was effectively preserved during storage at room temperature, and qualify deterioration oaf dependent on using warming equipment as well as the rice cultivar.

The effects of pressure cooker brand awareness, in terms of rice cooking performance, were evaluated using consumer acceptability tests. A blind test was performed using rice samples cooked by 3 different pressure cookers without any brand information, and a brand awareness test followed with the same informed consumer panel. Overall acceptability, glossiness, stickiness, hardness, flavor, and color were evaluated and compared to determine whether or not there were changes on consumer choice for acceptability. Brand A and brand B were not significantly different in their overall acceptability, moisture content, flavor, or color (p > 0.05), but they were significantly different for glossiness, stickiness, and hardness. Brands A and C were significantly different for all the attributes (p < 0.05). In the brand awareness test, brands A and B were not significantly different in their liking scores for all the attributes (p > 0.05). Brand C had significantly lower liking scores for overall acceptability, glossiness, stickiness, hardness, and moisture content than the other brands (p < 0.05). When comparing the liking scores for all the attributes with those of the blind test, the scores of the brand awareness test were slightly higher. For brand A, there were changes in its liking scores for overall acceptability, flavor, and glossiness (p < 0.05). However, brands B and C had brand awareness effects for all the attributes (p < 0.05).
